  • Monolithic Authenticity and Fake News Stephen Colbert’S Megalomania
    Monolithic Authenticity and Fake News Stephen Colbert’s Megalomania SETH HULSE DESIRING AUTHENTICITY Authenticity is an idea that lurks behind every claim in every news story, as it is ascribed to medial narratives by sender, receiver, and the dissemination medium itself. Journalists caress authenticity by trying to enhance their stories with images and sounds from historical reality while news consumers try to inform themselves about their historical reality by confronting the claims made by journalists and deciding on what to believe. Although consumer confidence in news media, and television news in particular, has steadily fallen in recent decades, consumers still rely on broadcast television as their primary source of news information (cf. Rosenstiel 17-18). Also, despite having a low amount of trust in media institutions, as detailed in the expansive Pew Research Center report by Rosenstiel, American news consumers con- tinue to long for information that informs their conceptions of society. As Jan Berg persuasively writes in his essay »Techniken der medialen Authentifizierung,« our desire for authenticity can be understood as a longing for the all-powerful, for the wondrous, the holy, and the au- thorless object (cf. 56, 65). He describes the modes and the depiction techniques of authenticity and posits that authenticity need not only be seen as a relic of undisputable omnipotence, magnificence, and holi- ness, but that instead one can also understand it as »a specifically modern modus of truth, a mode of compensation, which in the modern world shifts into those positions that have become empty as a result of 64 | SETH HULSE Enlightenment and de-deification« (Berg 56; my translation).1 Most interestingly, Berg highlights an important facet of the authentication process, namely that of self-ascription, of supposed authorlessness.

  • Barack Obama's Strategy to Win the 2008 Democratic Nomination for President
    Barackin’ The Vote: Barack Obama’s Strategy to Win The 2008 Democratic Nomination for President By: Daniel H. Greeley GOVT 315.001 – Elections & Voting Behavior Capstone Advisor: Professor Candice Nelson Table of Contents Section Page Number Introduction 1 Overall Strategy 2 Message 9 Fundraising 16 State-by-State Tactics 20 Conclusion 28 Works Cited 30 Appendix I: Table 1 – Obama Campaign State-by-State Expenditure Totals 34 Appendix II: Chart 1 – Obama Campaign Expenditures by State Over Time 35 Appendix III: Chart 2 – Obama Campaign Expenditures by Type 36 Appendix IV: Charts 3-11 – Obama Campaign Expenditures Per Quarter For Key States 38 Greeley 1 Introduction: While most people think that the goal of a presidential campaign is to win the election, this is not always the case. Some candidates mount a presidential campaign to raise awareness about an issue, such as Senator Tom Tancredo on immigration reform. Others want to make one of the frontrunner candidates address a specific issue. And, other candidates might want to garner name recognition and fundraising prowess to strengthen their chances of winning re- election to their current office. Finally, some candidates, like George H.W. Bush in 1980, enter the race to showcase their political strengths in the hopes that they might be able to join their party’s ticket or administration if their party wins in the general election. Senator Barack Obama from Illinois, who is an African-American, is running in the race for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination. Even four years ago, if someone had said an African-American was running for president, the conventional wisdom in the political establishment would probably have been that the candidate was running to raise awareness about race issues or to make the other candidates at least acknowledge these issues.
